Comments Thread For: Roach Will Talk To Pacquiao About Retirement: Maybe This is It!

[Thraxox]

Its pathetic to force this little ass dude to have to KO guys. Lame ass yahoo writer Kevin Iole has been dissing Pacquiao for the past 5 years for not being able to KO these bigger guys, he even downplays his performances just because he cant KO them

No other fighter in history has been pressured to have to KO someone to impress than Pacquiao, its strange as ***, the guy is naturally small he is undersized and was never a one punch KO guy, Pac shouldnt have to live up to those ultimate expectations is almost cruel in a sense because Pacman really tries to KO guys but just cant and he gassed out trying.

He should just box like he did with David Diaz and Oscar focus on pot shotting and moving around.

It's sad to see a former Flyweight at 38 years old has to be forced on knocking men that re hydrates to middleweight.

Do it, man. I always wanted to hold out a sliver of hope because it's been such a fun ride, but no more slivers, man. It's ova. Manny is only going to get worse with every passing day. As they say Father Time is undefeated and Manny's time as a top level, A+ fighter is over. He's a B fighter now. And hell if he keeps fighting a year from now he may plummet his ass to the depths of C level.

No Horn rematch. Say bye.

Pa will win the rematch, he should retire after that

pac doesnt need to rematch horn, he won the fight. but if he needs the money he can fight for sure

Pac hasn't stopped anyone since Welterweight, period. Too much talk was put about him not having a KO in years. Quite frankly, the Cotto KO was just a stoppage by the ref in the 12th when either he should of done it sooner or just let Cotto go until the end Margarito style.

The fact is, Pac never truly carried his punching power up to 147lbs. It looked to be there at 140lbs but he only stayed to use it on Hatton and then left immediately. Obviously at 130lbs and below it was brutal, but at 147lbs it just keeps opponents honest. I'm not surprised he hasn't KO'd anyone truly at 147lbs... it's never been his true weight class, only his money weight class.

that is when you find out how good a fighter really is

like Ward, at 175

or Mayweather, at 154..... and 147 really

or Canelo, at 160

the Mayweather/Bradley fights proved how good Pac is at welter

pretty damn good

but yea, he really should have been fighting at 140

[#mandownESJR1]

the legend needs to retire. Many many wars he gave us.

Salute to him.

A female judge ?? Not good.

Stop watching your favourite fighters fight past their prime. It's depressing. I'm going through Pac's career set to remember how he was, not the pathetic zombie he's become.

lol yeah, Have you read Kevin Iole articles for the past 6 years he is always writing negative **** on Manny saying oh well he won but he didn't knock out the guy, uh every article I seen of Iole he never gets mad at other boxers only Manny if he doesn't KO anyone, most of his pre fight articles for Pacquiao consist of Manny is not the same guy and he desperately needs a KO to stay relevant wtf? hahaahh dude doesnt know boxing, he never says this on any other fighter Keith Thurman stopped one time kos, and mostly boxs now but Iole never says in order for Thurman to make a name he needs to knockout all his foes to live up to the one time moniker. He only demands little old ass Pacman to KO guys or else he sucks.

Why so much pressure on that little ass filipino he isnt even half the size of most of the guys he fights he aint gonna knock these guys out its extremely hard to knock guys out in the top level and guys who are bigger with strong chins.

Iole is also a UFC shill.

I don't know about him winning the rematch. If he fights like he did last night there Is a pretty good chance he ends up getting caught and knocked out.

It looked as If Pacquiao abandoned boxing all together and decided to stand toe to toe with Horn, gunning for the KO. Horn Is a massive welterweight and probably was somewhere around 160+ by fight time. Pacquiao Is not knocking out a welterweight that big at this point In his career.

If Manny Is still capable of boxing and moving as he has been doing since the KO loss to Marquez, he could win a unanimous decision. I guess we will see because there will be a rematch, I don't think Manny will accept finishing his career with a loss.

Retire & keep stealing money from the poor citizens of the Philippines
